Address RIORDAN, DAWSON A CO., No. 149 East Bay, Charleston, S. C. MONDAY, APRIL 4, 1S70. XE IFS OE THE I>JLT. -Gold closed in New York on Saturday at ll*. -Cotton was dull, with sales of 500 bales at 22j cents. -In Liverpool cotton was steady. No eve? ning quotations. -The probable passage through Parliament of the bill for the. preservation of life and prop? erty in Ireland has caused emigration to thc United States to Increase to a remarkable ex? tent. -Mormon converts have appeared in Ala? bama. The Columbus (Miss.) Index says that a few days ago the train bore away from thc depot at that place an emigrant party of about thirty persons, big and littre, bound for Brig? ham Young's dominions. They hailed from Sandford County. Alabama, and were all con? verts to the Mormon faith. -The New York Herald, in speaking of the stock market .on Thursday last, say: "The market for Southern State? bonds wassleady but extremely dull, the investment demand being for the time suspended, while the specu? lative interest was absorbed in the stock mar? ket. The April issues of new South Carolinas were strong, and sold at Sdi. To-morrow they will be quoted, ex coupon, at thrco percent, gold." -The steamship Camilla arrived at New York on Wednesday, with fifteen passengers of the steamship Venezuela, which the Camilla overhauled in distress during thc severe gales of last week. Thero aro forty-two persons still aboard thc Venezuela, thc captain and his crew refusing to leave the ship, although .she had a large hole in her hull, and her rud? der and stern post were wrenched away, and her provisions flooded. The Venezuela, when the Camilla left her, was about mid-ocean on her route from Liverpool to Barbadoes. -A Washington letter says : "There was quite a gathering In the ante-room of thc White House when the message ?nd procla? mation were signed, bau" the number, how? ever, being newspaper men. An attache of a Washington newspaper begged the President for the pen with which the documents were signed, and it was banded him. A venerable old gentleman who wai In the crowd cried out -when.the announcement <*-as made that the negroes could now vote everywhere. "Well, gentlemen, you'll all be damn sorry for this !" The speaker was Dent, Sr., the father-in-law of tho President." -A serious affray occurred at Tuscaloosa, Ala., on Friday morning between Ryland Randolph and a man named Smith, a friend of Vaughan's. Smith and Vaughan came in from thc University, and while Vanghan re? mained behind on the opposite Bide of the street, Smith went to where Randolph wa9 standing, and, it is said, he cried "stand aside," and drew his pistol. Randolph al6o drew his pistol, when both fired several shots, Randolph being wounded in thc leg, though not dangerously. Smith was also slightly wounded. A bystander was killed. SEI?UI and Vaughan were both arrested. Intense excitement prevails. -It has been reserved for a church in Ne? braska to combine the possibility of profit with benevolence, after a fashion which throws in the shade the raffling church fairs in vogue in this part of the country. To cancel the mort? gage debt of the church, non-interest bearing bonds In sums ot $100 have been put upon the market, payable in ten years, and as a means .of securing rapid subscriptions, two compara? tively large prizes, to bc awarded by lot in thc same fashion, arc offerer?.' the one a $2000 United States bond, and thc other a bond of hali that amount The Inducement for the good Christians of Nebraska to invest in theso new-fashioned securities is therefore the chance of getting their money back with In? terest at the rather steep rate ot two thousand per cent, or two hundred per cent, per annum. -A case was decided by the United States j Supreme Court some days ago, which will, no doubt, create a sensation among holders of 5 confiscated property in the South, many of 1 whom made their purchases without fully un- 1 .demanding the law cn the subject. The case 1 is that oI Bigelow vs. .OeForrest;.in which'cer- 1 tain.real .estate in Virginia was seized under f thc:con?5cation laws and sold, its ?wner being f adjtigedgullty oftreason. Thatperson'having since died, his heirs brought suit in ejectment , to recover the property. The claim was resist? ed on the ground that the. title of the original owner was forfeited by bis ' ?re?s?n, and his rights in the property thoroughly divested. 1 But the United States Supreme Court-decide 1 tbitit was only his estate duringhls life which I was divested, and. since his death his heirs I may recover the property. Thc decision is hi ( accordance with clause two, section three, arti- ? cle three of tho Constitution of the! United , States, which says: "Congress shaU have . power to declaro the punishment of treason, 1 but no attainder, of treason shall work cor rup- ? tl: n of blood or forfeiture, except during the 1 life of tho person attainted." . . -The trial of McFarland will commence in s New York on an indictment charging him with i the murder " of Albert D.. Richardson, du the l 25th of November last The prosecution will ( be solely conducted .by District-Attorney Gar? vin. It is expected that ho will 6imply confine . ihJmself to the facts coannected with the homl- J clde, and to the threatening language which ? McFarland ls alleged to have used toward Rich- I ardson in conversation with other parties. It s is also believed that he wld endeavor to intro- t dnce evidence concerning the first attempt e at taking Mr. Richardson's ll>. Mrs Bich- a ardson (formerly Mrs. McFarland) will be f called as a witness. At present she 1 living at Woodside, New Jersey, in compan; with the deceased journalist's children. Verj little can be ascertained about the linc of th? defence, Messrs. John Graham, Charles S Spencer aud Elbridge T. Gerry, thc counsel fo: the prisoner, having pledged themselves t( strict secrecy in the matter. It is thought thu they will make the question of insanity, o: frenzy, on thc part of thc prisoner at the Ultu he committed the homicidal act for which hi is indieted, one o? thc strong points in thc case: and it ls also said that they will claim that the deed was justifiable, on thc grount that an adulterous intimacy existed betwcci Mr. Richardson and McFarland's wife. Hon Horace Greeley, vice-President Colfax, Rev Henry Ward Beecher and Rev. Mr. Frothing liam arc reported to have received notice frou the defence to be present as witnesses at th< trial The Tariff Question. The most notable of all the recent speeches in Congress was delivered by Mr. S. S. Cox, o New York, on last Monday, bi reference t< the Tariff bill, now before the House. It wat at once profound, brilliant and humorous. Mr. Cox charges the Radicals with bat faith in refusing to reduce the tarin"-a policj to which they pledged themselves so soon af the internal taxes should have been reduced. The pledge was made in 1864 ; it has nol yet been redeemed, although last yeal $150,000,000 were resigned by the interna revenue, and during the present session $30,000,000. He contends that this treachery is ruining the country. Great Britain anti France prosper by a reduction of their tariffs. Among us the contrary policy has prevailed to such an extent that our shipping interest well nigh rained, so that bounties must b? invoked to save it, and the sweat, care and brain of labor are sacrificed for the bene? fit of greedy monopolists. The attack upon Mr. Kelley, who repre? sents the iron aud coal interests of Philadel? phia, was particularly telling. "If I should "ask him," exclaimed Mr. Cox, "do you op? pose all foreign competition with what we "can produce against cheaper foreign pro? duction, he would say : 'Yes.' If I ask "again : If the article from abroad were "fabulously low, 30 as to injure home trade "and production, would you restrict and "prohibit? 'By all means.' Then I read to "him Bastrat's fable, with ray new glossary, "ne would close all windows, sky-lights, "shutters, curtains, bliud3, bull's-eyes, open? ings, chinks, clefts and fissures, whereby "the sun enters to the prejudice of the merito "rious home manufacturer of candles, lamps, ' camile sticks, street lamps, matches, ex? tinguishers, and the producers of oil, tal? low, rosin and alcohol! He ask3 to shut "out the sun as a free trader, denounces his "cheap and plentiful light u3 destructivo of '.home indastry. He would guard the home "market from this British gold-bought in "truder! That luminary has no right to "compete with Pennsylvania coal ga3. His "labor is cheap-pauper labor. Half our "time he inundates U3 with beams. If Joshua "should command the sun to stand still "over Philadelphia, thc coal ga3 business "would be ruined! Our home market is "already glutted with this commodity. "When "he appears, the market for candle sticks "and gas burners trembles to ita fall. Con? sumers greet him-as if he wore not an "alien ! Quench his lischt, and artificial "light will be in demand, nis interference "is not limited, ne strikes at agriculture. "Tallow i3 a drug. Oxen and sheep are af? fected. It i3 a foul blow at meadow, meat, "wool, hides, manure. He plugs up the oil "well. He interferes with the harpoon trade, "and thus interferes with thc price of iron. "The very whales will blubber no more over "their lost lights. He invades, though "feebly, Alaska. There are fifteen thousand "Alents depending on 6eal catching for oil, "itc. The sealmen of Pribalov are appalled. "They applaud the efforts of the gentleman. "Even the four million of seals-bulls and "cows-meet cn Tnasse, to extend their flip "per3 to the gentleman. What, too, becomes "of the gildings, bronzes, crystals, lamps, In "gorgeous saloons? Close the dome of this "Capitol from the light. Lot oar ceilings, "so richly escutcheoned, only bc illumined "from Pennsylvania gai ; even as they are "set in Pennsylvania iron! Build an opaque "roof-ribbed with Pennsylvania steel-over "the land, regardlessofexpen.se, that every "coal bank in Pennsylvania may furnish, "and no Nova Scotian bank shall compete, "for the coal to be consumed or thc gas to "bc made. And then there is thc match bu? siness. Shall that bc forever discouraged, "my sunbeams? Forbid it, Almighty Con "gress. Reject the gratuities of God ; reject "wealth, comfort abundance, cheapness "every thing foreign which interferes with "our artificial production, at higher cost ! "Thegentleman, to be consistent, must pen? sion his people or others against the laws "of nature and the divine economies." This was bad enough ; but the merciless Congressman went on to show that his tariff-loving brother was opposed, not only to the laws of nature, but what is more se? rious to an American politician, to the prin? cipal of equality. It was shown that he was ' robbing from the farmer's plough, the black? smiths' anvil, the carpenter's adze, the wood nan's axe, the merchant's steamship. Ile ?vas making our commerce a pauper, and lelping the Clyde builders to countless mil ions. He would not even allow the Indiana armer to sell his surplus corn to England br two blankets, but would keep him shir? ring with one. "Equality," said Mr. Cox, 'is justice ; inequality is protection, and 'protection ?3 robbery." The effect of the speech, from which we nake these brief extracta, may be judged by ;he met that Mr. Gilfillan, of Pennsylvania, ?efusod to allow Mr. Cox an extension of ;ime to finish his argument The latter had >nly time to substantiate his principles by ihowing the effect of the tariff in enhancing he cost of two articles of prime necessity- J ron and salt It was due to the speaker md to his great theme that he should have >eeu fully heard and fairly answered. But what he has said is enough to raise a i tomi all over the country. Will the J ron-users of America-and who does not be-? I ong to this class-remain indifferent when ; hey learn that for every $100 worth of iin )orted pig iron they are compelled to pay ? ast $207 01? How can the American steam- \ hip thrive, or any , interest or industry de- : >endent upon cheap iron, when so oppres ive a burden is imposed upon them-when J he price of the raw material makes its ? ?onomical use Impossible ? This question, ] .t least, Mr. Cox has succeeded in bringing 8 airly before tl.e country. j A Universal Library. It is not given to all thc workers in the paths of literature to win both famo and for? tune. There arc men who toil for years without expedition of popular praise, und of tbcso the most zealous und unselfish are they who prepare the compendiums and books of reference, which, in this day of uni? versal information, if not of universal know? ledge, play an important part in every well regulated literary household. Living, as wc de, at high pressure, it i3 impossible to master cveu the broad outlines of nil the ologies and isms of the century. But a rest? less curiosity, a spirit of emulation, and the exigencies of society, politics and trade, impel every citizen to be in readiness to ex? plain and comprehend every moot point which a word or an event may bring to his attention. These considerations apply with equal force to the merchant, the professional man and the mechanic; for every day prac? tical questions arise which cannot be answered off-hand, but which, if books of reference are nigh, may be made an impor? tant mean3 of adding to the stock of useful knowledge and technical information. What is most needed, then, i3 a work which will embrace thc most important facts upon every subject, so arranged that any one of them may be easily found, and pre? pared so carefully that it may be accepted a3 a standard authority. Such a work is Ute ''New American Encyclopaedia," edited by Charles A. Dana and George Ripley, and published by D. Appleton & Co., of New York, a firm honorably pre-eminent, for the reason that no work has issued from their presses containing any abuse or slander of ! the South, as well as because of their muni? ficent donations of money and of books to the cause of Southern education. The "New American Encyclopaedia" bas been prepared at a co3t of $100,000, and presents a panoramic view of all human knowledge, as it exi3ts at the present mo? ment. It treats of all tho branches of Art and Science, of Agriculture, Commerce and Manufactures, Law, Medicine and Theology, Biography, History and Geography, as well as Political Economy and General Litera? ture. In a word, it is a library in itself, wherein are expounded and discussed all matters human and inhuman, from Shakes? peare to a locomotive. And the whole work is thoroughly impartial. Between religions, men and institutions the balance is held with an even and impartial hand. The work ha? been prepared with scrupulous care, several hundred writers having been engaged in the different departments. As it stands, it is a model of taste, learning and cheap? ness-a work which covers the whole wide field of knowledge, and does full justice to the claims, resources and genius of our own sunny South-a work, we may add, which the Hon. Alexander H. Stephens, in a recent letter, pronounces superior to all ol'ner Encyclopaedias, and which Bishop Beckwith styles "the most valuable treasury ef general knowledge now before the public." The "New American Encyclopaedia" i3 . omplete in sixteen volumes, and is sold by subscription only. Mr. J. C. Derby, of Au? gusta, Ga., has been appointed general Southern agent for tho publications of D. Appleton A Co., with special reference to their great Cyclopaedia. To this well known and responsible gentleman, who may now be found with his Charleston agents, Walker, Evans & Cogswell, subscriptions may be sent. Thc South i'ii roi i ii ii RailroadCompanr. Captain Alfred L. Tyler has formally ac? cepted the position of vice-president of the Soffth Carolina Railroad Company, and upon his return to Charleston from New York, will enter upon the discharge of his important and onerous duties. The prospects of the road are remarkably ?ood. With the completion of the Macon and Augusta Railroad in June next, a vast field will be thrown open to the South Carolina Railroad, which must largely increase its business; and the proposed exten? sion of the line, in Charleston, to the water front will enable the company to carry on its huge operations with the closest economy and quickest dispatch. As an indication of what the South Carolina Railroad Company is now doing, wc may remark that its up freight business for the month of March was, in quantity and in amount of money, tho largest month's business had since the close of thc war. WE PRINT some extracts from a leading editorial nf the Orangcburg Neus, one of the most liberal and progressive papers in Hie State. The writer makes a vigorous appeal to the good sense and good feeling of the white and the colored citizens, urging them to unite In the great effort for redeeming South Carolina. THE-New York Ration \\aa "heard nothing "yet said about Tennessee, as an excuse for "fresh reconstruction, which may not be also "said of New York." Very true, perhaps, ag a matter of theory ; but, as a matter of practice, Congress dare not meddle with the "Empire State," and eau safely treat as it pleases "traitorous Tennessee." Thi3 is the tvhole difference. Jot Sole. REAL ESTATE OR PERSONAL PRO?

QUALITY STILL FURTHER IMPROVED. _ Jr We beg leave respectfully to call the attention, of the public to our Superior Flavoring Extracts. As ten years have now elapsed since we first ln trodne.ed them to the notice of the American pub? lic, we deem it unnecessary at present to enter Into a lengthy description of their merits, Ac There ls hardly a etty or town of any note in the country into which they have not found then: way. The reason of this widespread popularity and dally increasing demand ls owing entirely to their peculiar excellence and intrinsic. worth. Being determined to make them the Standard Ex? tracts of the day, we have still further Improved their quality, and now we firmly and honestly be? lieve that they stand without a rival. Our Vanilla Extract cannot be surpassed for richness and delicacy or flavor. It is a strictly pure and high? ly concentrated Extract of Vanilla Beans. In short, wc think lt the best that ls made, at least, this ls the decision of the best Judges in the coun? try. We don't pretend to compete in price with many of the so-called Flavoring Extracts of the day. which are really but worthless compounds, undeserving of the name. For quality and style, we defy competition.
